ridetech airPod

I'm thinking about putting a ridetech airPod in my Impala, But I was wondering if they came in a 5 gal version with two compressors? I sent an email to ART, but I know that so many of you guys have dealt with them in the past. I'm also looking for a video of the airpod in use. I wanted to compare the noise to my york, because I was thinking about putting the pod in the trunk of my Imp to cut down on the noise.

Re: ridetech airPod

I am a prior air ride employee and to be honest they are extremely quite we had them in a majority of our company vehicles and they were extremely comfortable to drive. A video wont give you an accurate display of how they sound but I can say from a ton of experience they are quite.

Re: ridetech airPod

I have a york on my blazer and I like the fact that is doesn't take minutes to air up my tanks, but I'm checking to see if the airpod would be a good alternative for use in another project.

Re: ridetech airPod

I personally have never liked the engine driven compressors although I'm sure they have come along way since I used one 10yrs ago.... my engine driven I had years ago was a noisey beast although I may have just had a junk York but in comparison to my old compressors they aren't as loud... what are ya working on? hit me up and I'll give ya a screamin deal on it
